Throughout my career I have always focused on outcomes that make a difference for the people of King County: public safety, housing and transportation. We deserve to feel and be safe in our communities – which is why I have delivered public safety solutions from support for law enforcement to crime prevention, and behavioral health responses. Our communities are growing increasingly expensive – which is why I fight for expanded access to affordable housing and convenient, sustainable transportation options.
I’m excited for the opportunity to bring my experience, perseverance and proven record to the office of County Executive.
It’s been an exciting few weeks on the campaign - including several major union endorsements. These eight unions represent tens of thousands of workers who are critical to making our county go. As County Executive, I will continue standing up and fighting for working families.
I’m ...also proud to be endorsed by unions that together represent a majority of King County employees. I am honored to earn their support and look forward to a strong partnership.
I am excited to share another new endorsement: Ironworkers Local 86! They help fuel economy, playing an essential role in our infrastructure and construction projects.
My career has been defined by partnership and progress - and I’m proud of what we have accomplished alongside our labor... coalition, and ready for all we can do going forward.
I’m excited to announce that the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers District Lodge 751 (IAM District 751) has endorsed my campaign for King County Executive!
I’m honored to be the only candidate endorsed by their 33,000 members - who together comprise one ...of our County’s largest labor unions - and to add to our growing base of support from the labor movement.
March 2025: Another month of Claudia putting in the work, not just on behalf of her district, but for our entire county. Action is what she’s known for, and as County Executive you can expect she will work for you and the voters of King County first.
Autocracy is voracious. It will take and take and take. We cannot capitulate. We must stand up - and it was inspiring sight to do so today alongside thousands of community members and my family at the Hands Off rallies today in Redmond and Seattle. Together, we fight back.
Thank you to ...Seattle Indivisible, Indivisible Eastside - WA, and all the organizers of today's events.
Last month, I introduced legislation around ghostbuses 👻: the bus that your app says is coming, but never does. For all of us transit riders, it’s an unfortunately common and frustrating experience! My legislation will help us get those phantom buses off the streets; read more about it in ...MyNorthwest’s piece (link below).
This is what you can expect from me as County Executive. Setting and fighting for a big vision, like reliable, accessible, connected transit, and taking action on the practical steps we need to get there.

www.mobilize.usI'm thrilled to be endorsed by Senator Jessica Bateman, who has been a true champion in Olympia for affordable housing and land use reform. Housing is one of the biggest challenges we face in King County, and I am the only candidate in this race with a proven track record of advocating for it ...and getting results.
